RESUMEN
Malnutrition in heart failure (HF) is frequent and associated with a worse prognosis. Due to differences in investment and the profile of those assisted, the objective of this study was to evaluate the frequency of malnutrition in hospitalized patients with HF and its association with clinical outcomes in the public and private health systems. Methodology: A cross-sectional study, with 247 volunteers hospitalized with HF in three public hospitals and one private hospital in Aracaju, SE, Brazil. A subjective global nutritional assessment (SGA) and mini nutritional assessment (MNA) were performed. Results: Sample with 72.5% users of the public health system and 75.3% with malnutrition (public = 74.9%; private = 76.5%; p = 0.793). Regardless of the healthcare system, hospital stay (>14 days) was longer (p = 0.020) among those with malnutrition (48.4%) than well-nourished patients (29.5%). Malnutrition in the public system had higher mortality (7.5%; 5.8%; p < 0.001) and hospital transfer rate (21.1%; 0.0%; p < 0.001) than those in the private system. Death after discharge was observed only in the public system (p = 0.039). Conclusion: Malnutrition was frequent in both systems and was associated with longer hospital stays and, in the public hospital, in-hospital death and transfers.

BACKGROUND: "The effective treatment of Heart Failure (HF) involves care with food intake. Recently, the Ministry of Health created the Brazilian Cardioprotective Diet and its dietary index, BALANCE, which assesses adherence to the standard's recommendations". METHODS: This observational prospective study is part of the Congestive Heart Failure Registry (VICTIM-CHF) of Aracaju/SE. Observations and data collection took place from April 2018 to February 2021. Sociodemographic and clinical aspects and food consumption were evaluated. Food intake was determined using the food frequency questionnaire. Foods were categorized using the BALANCE dietary index into green, yellow, blue and red food groups. The BALANCE dietary index was obtained using median and interquartile ranges, scores of the Mann-Whitney U test, and associations between clinical variables and the index, through linear regression. RESULTS: Participants included 240 patients with HF (61.12 ± 1.06 years), who were assisted by the Unified Health System (67.5%). Individuals with a partner showed greater adherence to the green food group recommendations (0.09; 0.00-0.17). The lowest adherence to recommendations regarding the blue food group was observed in individuals with excess weight, who had a higher consumption of foods rich in animal protein (0.54; 0.38-0.78). As for the red food group (ultra-processed foods) the highest adherence was observed by patients with diabetes mellitus (0.41; 0.05-0.77). The greatest adherence to the yellow food group, and a higher score, was observed in patients with the smallest left ventricular systolic diameter (LVSD). CONCLUSIONS: Being married was directly associated with the consumption of foods in the green group, while being overweight and having diabetes were inversely associated with adherence to the blue and red food groups, respectively. Greater adherence to the yellow food group recommendations was inversely associated with less change in the DSFVE.
RESUMEN
Physical activity levels during the COVID-19 pandemic have been decreasing and this may be a risk factor for development of emotional eating and its associated factors. The aim of the study was to analyze the factors associated with emotional eating among individuals with different physical activity levels during the COVID-19 pandemic. Data relating to the pandemic on physical activity, emotional eating, sociodemographic data, perceptions about lifestyle habits, body satisfaction, and perceptions about eating habits and food consumption were collected. Factors associated with emotional eating in the group of active and inactive individuals were observed using multiple linear regression controlled for age, sex, BMI, and monthly income. Emotional eating for the active group was associated with perceived stress, body dissatisfaction, and increased consumption of sweets and desserts. In addition to these factors found among the active group, working or studying >8 h/day, sleep worsening, increased amount of food consumed, increased purchase of food through delivery, and increased vegetable consumption were also associated with emotional eating for the inactive group. These findings suggest a potential protective role of physical activity in the appearance of factors associated with emotional eating during the COVID-19 pandemic.

INTRODUCTION: Introduction: the simultaneous increase in the prevalence of cardiometabolic diseases and in the consumption of ultraprocessed foods (UPF) suggests a possible relationship between UPF and cardiometabolic risk (CMR). Objective: to evaluate the association between food consumption, according to the degree of processing, and CMR in young adults. Methods: this is a comparative cross-sectional study in 120 Brazilian young adults aged 18-25 years, categorized by the presence of CMR. Food consumption was investigated using a semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire, and classified according to the extent of food processing. Food groups and tertiles in grams of unprocessed, minimally processed (MPF), processed and ultra-processed foods (UPF) were compared using the Kruskal-Wallis test. The associations of food consumption, according to level of processing (MPF and UPF), with CMR components were evaluated using logistic regression models. Results: a high caloric contribution of UPF was observed in the diet of this study population. The total energy intake from lipids in all foods (p = 0.04) and in UPF (p = 0.03) was greater in the group with CMR. A greater consumption of UPF was a risk factor for abdominal obesity (OR = 1.09; 95 % CI = 1.00-1.18) while a greater consumption of MPF was protective for LDL-c alterations independently of sex, physical activity, and alcohol intake (OR = 0.70; 95 % CI = 0.50-0.98). Conclusions: UPF contributed to a greater caloric intake from fat in the CMR, and was a risk factor for abdominal obesity. MPF was an independent protective factor for LDL-c alterations.
INTRODUCCIÓN: Introducción: la alta prevalencia de enfermedades cardiometabólicas y el avance de los alimentos ultraprocesados en la dieta sugieren una posible relación entre ellos. Objetivo: valorar la asociación entre el consumo de alimentos clasificado por el grado de procesamiento y el riesgo cardiometabólico en adultos jóvenes. Métodos: estudio transversal con una muestra compuesta por 120 jóvenes brasileños de 18 a 25 años, que fueron categorizados según el riesgo cardiometabólico (presencia o ausencia). El consumo de alimentos se evaluó mediante un cuestionario semicuantitativo de frecuencias a partir del que se clasificó la ingesta de acuerdo con el grado de procesamiento. Estos resultados se dividieron en terciles de gramos de alimentos (procesados y mínimamente procesados, procesados y ultraprocessados). Las diferencias de consumo diario de alimentos entre los terciles se compararon por medio del test de Kruskal-Wallis. Se realizó una regresión logística para asociar el grado de procesamiento con los componentes del riesgo cardiometabólico. Resultados: se observó una alta contribución energética de los alimentos ultraprocesados en la dieta de la muestra estudiada. La ingestión de grasas totales (p = 0,04) y alimentos ultraprocesados (p = 0,03) fue mayor entre el grupo con riesgo cardiometabólico. El consumo de alimentos ultraprocesados fue un factor de riesgo de obesidad abdominal (OR = 1,09; IC 95 %: 1,00-1,18), mientras que el consumo de los mínimamente procesados fue protector frente a las alteraciones del LDL-c, independientemente del sexo, la actividad física y la ingesta de alcohol (OR = 0,70; IC 95 % = 0,50-0,98). Conclusión: los alimentos ultraprocesados contribuyeron a aumentar la ingesta de grasas y a la obesidad abdominal; en cambio, los alimentos no procesados y mínimamente procesados redujeron los niveles de LDL-c.

OBJECTIVE: To associate dietary patterns and food neophobia in low-income preschoolers. DESIGN: This was a cross-sectional study using a semi-structured questionnaire for socio-demographic data, birth conditions and breast-feeding history. Food neophobia was assessed using an adapted version of the Child Food Neophobia Scale. Children's nutritional status was assessed using BMI-for-age and height-for-age Z-scores. Dietary patterns were estimated using a semi-quantitative FFQ through exploratory factor analysis. Multiple linear regression was used to test for an association between food neophobia and dietary pattern adherence. SETTING: Philanthropic childhood education schools in Aracaju, an urban community in northeastern Brazil, between July and December 2017. PARTICIPANTS: Two hundred fourteen children aged 3-6 years and their parents. RESULTS: The percentages of low/medium and high food neophobia among preschoolers were 85·9 % and 11·2 %, respectively. Children with high food neophobia more frequently consumed ultra-processed foods rich in sugars (snacks, filled and unfilled cookies and sweets), as well as protein-rich foods (white meat, cheese and yogurt). Three dietary patterns were identified (traditional, snacks and school snacks). Children with a high level of neophobia had lower adherence to traditional dietary patterns. CONCLUSIONS: A high level of food neophobia among socially vulnerable preschoolers is an eating behaviour related to unhealthy eating and is associated with the poorest diet in typical foods.

INTRODUCTION: The intake of sugar-sweetened beverages (SSB) varies according to the characteristics of the population. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the SSB intake and demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors associated with its consumption in adolescents, adults, and older adults in São Paulo. METHODS: Data were drawn from the Health Survey of São Paulo, a cross-sectional population-based study including 1,662 individuals aged 12 years or more. SSB were classified into six groups: sugar-sweetened sodas, sweetened coffee and tea, sweetened milk and dairy products, sweetened fruit juice, sweetened fruit drink, and total SSB. The association of each group with demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle variables was assessed using linear regression models. RESULTS: The mean SSB intake was 668.4 mL in adolescents, 502.6 mL in adults, and 358.2 mL in elderly adults. Sodas and sweetened coffee and tea represented had the greatest contribution to energy intake. SSB consumption was lower among female sex and higher among overweight adolescents, among sufficiently active adults, and among lower household per capita income older adults. Consumption of SSB was high, particularly among adolescents. Public policies are required in order to decrease the consumption of these beverages. CONCLUSION: Age group, sex, household per capita income, and body mass index status were associated with SSB intake.

RESUMO: Introdução: A ingestão de bebidas açucaradas varia de acordo com as características da população. Objetivos: Investigar o consumo de bebidas açucaradas e os fatores demográficos, socioeconômicos e de estilo de vida associados ao seu consumo em adolescentes, adultos e idosos residentes em São Paulo. Métodos: Foram utilizados dados do Inquérito de Saúde de São Paulo, estudo transversal de base populacional, incluindo 1.662 indivíduos com 12 anos ou mais. As bebidas açucaradas foram classificadas em seis grupos: refrigerantes, cafés e chás adoçados, leite e produtos lácteos adoçados, sucos de fruta natural adoçados, sucos de fruta artificial adoçados e bebidas açucaradas totais. A associação de cada grupo com variáveis demográficas, socioeconômicas e de estilo de vida foi determinada por meio de modelos de regressão linear. Resultados: A ingestão média de bebidas açucaradas foi 668,4 mL em adolescentes, 502,6 mL em adultos e 358,2 mL em idosos. Refrigerantes e cafés e chás adoçados foram os grupos com a maior contribuição para a ingestão energética. O consumo de bebidas açucaradas foi menor entre as mulheres e maior entre os adolescentes com excesso de peso, entre adultos suficientemente ativos e entre os idosos de menor renda familiar per capita. O consumo de bebidas açucaradas foi elevado, particularmente entre adolescentes. Políticas públicas são necessárias a fim de reduzir o consumo dessas bebidas. Conclusão: Faixa etária, sexo, renda familiar per capita e índice de massa corporal foram associadas ao consumo de bebidas açucaradas.

BACKGROUND: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) is responsible for high rates of hospital admission and readmission, which are associated with increased costs for the patient and the health system, and increased in-hospital mortality rates. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate readmission in patients with ACS and its determinants. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of adult and elderly patients with ACS, readmitted to public and private referral cardiology hospitals within one year after the first hospitalization for ACS. The occurrence of readmissions, the time elapsed from the first to the second admission, and the use of medications at admission were collected from the medical records. Associations between categorical variables were evaluated by the chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test. Multiple logistic regression was used to evaluate predictors for readmissions. A p < 0.05 was set as statistically significant. RESULTS: Readmission rate was 21.5% (n = 115) and mean time between admissions was 122.7 ± 112.1 days. The patients were mostly men (64.0%), mean age of 63.15 ± 12.3 years. Among readmitted patients, 7% had a prognosis of "death", and 68.7% were readmitted more than once within a one-year period. The main reasons of readmission were cardiovascular diseases including ACS. Private health care and the diagnosis of congestive heart failure were associated with multiple logistic regression. CONCLUSION: ACS was the main cause of readmission, with higher prevalence among users of supplemental health care. Readmissions were associated with previous diagnosis of congestive heart failure and the type of health care provided.

Resumo Fundamento: A síndrome coronariana aguda (SCA) é responsável por elevados números de admissões e readmissões hospitalares, os quais estão associados ao aumento dos custos para o paciente e para o sistema de saúde, bem como à elevação nas taxas de mortalidade hospitalar. Objetivo: Investigar a reinternação entre pacientes com SCA e seus determinantes. Métodos: Trata-se de uma coorte retrospectiva de pacientes de ambos os sexos, adultos e idosos, diagnosticados com SCA. Foram avaliados, a partir dos registros dos hospitais locais públicos e privados de referência em cardiologia, a ocorrência de reinternação em até 1 ano após internação por SCA, o tempo entre as admissões e o uso de medicamentos no momento da reinternação. As variáveis categóricas foram associadas por meio do teste qui-quadrado, ou pelo teste exato de Fisher. Regressão logística múltipla foi utilizada para avaliar as variáveis preditoras da reinternação. Adotou-se como critério de significância estatística um valor de p < 0,05. Resultados: A ocorrência de reinternações foi de 21,46% (n = 115), e o período médio entre as internações foi de 122,74 (DP 112,14) dias. Os pacientes avaliados eram, em sua maioria, do sexo masculino (64,0%), com média de idade de 63,15 anos (DP 12,26). Sete por cento apresentaram óbito como prognóstico da reinternação, e 68,7% tiveram mais de uma reinternação em 1 ano. As causas cardiovasculares, entre elas a recorrência da SCA, foram as mais prevalentes entre as reinternações hospitalares. A assistência privada e o diagnóstico de insuficiência cardíaca congestiva (ICC) foram associados a reinternação após a regressão logística múltipla. Conclusão: Conclui-se que a SCA foi a principal causa de reinternação, sendo mais prevalente entre os usuários da rede suplementar de saúde. As reinternações associaram-se ao diagnóstico prévio de ICC e ao tipo de assitência à saúde.

ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the association between sugar-sweetened beverages consumption and dietary quality in adolescents, adults, and older adults living in São Paulo, Brazil. Methods Data were drawn from a cross-sectional population-based study conducted in 2008 in a representative urban city sample involving 1494 consumers of sugar-sweetened beverages. Dietary intake was evaluated through two 24-Hour Dietary Recalls, and the usual sugar-sweetened beverages consumption was estimated using the Multiple Source Method. Dietary quality was evaluated using the Brazilian Healthy Eating Index - Revised. The association between total score of the revised index and components with sugar-sweetened beverages consumption tertiles was assessed using multiple linear regression models for each age group, considering the sample design. Results Regardless of age group, the increase of sugar-sweetened beverages consumption was associated with a decrease in the total Healthy Eating Index - Revised score and in the components "total fruit"; "whole fruit"; "meat, eggs and legumes", and the "solid fat, alcohol and added sugar". Conclusion The results of our study suggest that higher sugar-sweetened beverages consumption was associated with poorer dietary quality. Planning public health policies aimed at decreasing sugar-sweetened beverages consumption is essential to increase dietary quality and reduce the incidence of noncommunicable diseases.
RESUMO Objetivo Avaliar a associação entre a qualidade da dieta e o consumo de bebidas açucaradas em adolescentes, adultos e idosos residentes da cidade de São Paulo, Brasil. Métodos Foram utilizados dados provenientes do Inquérito de Saúde de São Paulo de 2008, estudo transversal de base populacional, com amostra composta por 1494 consumidores de bebidas açucaradas. O consumo alimentar foi avaliado por meio de dois Recordatórios Alimentares de 24 Horas e o consumo habitual de bebidas açucaradas foi estimado por meio do Multiple Source Method. A qualidade da dieta foi determinada usando o Índice de Qualidade da Dieta Revisado. A associação entre o índice revisado e a ingestão de bebidas açucaradas foi avaliada por meio de modelos de regressão linear para cada grupo etário, considerando o desenho amostral. Resultados Independente da faixa etária, o aumento do consumo de bebidas açucaradas foi associado à diminuição da pontuação total do Índice de Qualidade da Dieta-Revisado e dos componentes "frutas integrais", "frutas totais", "carne, ovos e leguminosas" e "gordura sólida, álcool e açúcar de adição". Conclusão A maior ingestão de bebidas açucaradas está associada à pior qualidade da dieta. O planejamento de políticas públicas visando à diminuição do consumo de bebidas açucaradas é essencial para aumentar a qualidade da dieta e reduzir a incidência de doenças crônicas não transmissíveis.

BACKGROUND: Excess body weight (EBW: overweight and obesity) has high and rising prevalence in Brazil. Up-to-date information about the distribution and changes in the prevalence of EBW and their associated factors are essential to determine target groups and to identify priority actions. The aim of this study was to investigate the associated factors and to determine the prevalence of overweight and obesity in the adolescent and adult population of the city of São Paulo in the years of 2003, 2008, and 2015, as well as to estimate the prediction for the next years. METHODS: Individuals aged 12 years and older from three editions of the Health Survey of São Paulo (ISA-Capital), a cross-sectional population-based survey, carried out in 2003 (n = 2144), 2008 (n = 2599), and 2015 (n = 3939), had their socioeconomic, anthropometric, and lifestyle data collected at households. Individuals were classified according to their age and BMI as: without excess body weight, overweight, or obese. Differences were evaluated through Pearson's Chi-square test and comparison of 95% CI. Generalized ordered logit models were used to evaluate factors associated to overweight/obesity and logistic regression models were used to predict their prevalence for the next years. RESULTS: The prevalence (95% CI) of obesity in total population doubled: from 10% (8.0, 12.5) in 2003 to 19.2% (17.8, 20.6) in 2015. The main increase occurred in female adolescents from 2.5% (1.2, 5.3) to 11.2% (8.4, 14.7) and adults, from 9.2% (6.4, 13.1) to 22.3% (20.0, 24.8). Those with higher chance of having EBW were adults, those with higher income, and former smokers. The prevalence of EBW increased 31% from 2003 to 2008, and 126% from 2003 to 2015, when half of the population had EBW. If this pattern does not change, 77% of the population is expected to have EBW by 2030. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings present up-to-date information about the distribution of EBW, which increased substantially over a short time and more prominently in specific groups. The factors associated with EBW may provide important information for decision makers and researchers to create or review the existing programs and interventions in order to decrease the trend for the next years.

BACKGROUND: The association of obesity and dietary patterns has been well documented in scientific literature; however, information on the impact of meal patterns on obesity is scarce. The objective of this study was to investigate the association of adherence to lunch patterns and body mass index (BMI) in a representative sample of individuals aged 20 years or older in Sao Paulo. METHODS: Data for 933 participants were retrieved from the Health Survey of São Paulo (ISA-Capital 2008), a cross-sectional population-based survey. The usual dietary intake of individuals with at least one 24-h recall was estimated by the Multiple Source Method. The definition of lunch was self-reported by the participant. Five lunch patterns were derived from twenty-two food groups by exploratory factor analysis: Traditional, Western, Sweetened juice, Salad, and Meats. To estimate the effect of lunch patterns on BMI, we used a generalized linear model with link identity and inverse Gaussian distribution. Analyses were adjusted by age, gender, household income per capita, physical activity levels, smoking status, alcohol consumption, total energy intake, and misreporting status. RESULTS: The greater adherence to the traditional pattern at the lunch meal was associated with lower BMI, only in insufficiently active individuals (ß = -0.78; 95% CI -1.57; -0.02). CONCLUSIONS: The traditional Brazilian lunch pattern might protect the insufficiently active individuals against obesity.

BACKGROUND: Identifying which risk groups have a higher intake of branched chain amino acids (BCAA) is important for the planning of public policies. This study was undertaken to investigate BCAA consumption, the foods contributing to that consumption and their association with demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors. METHODS: Data from the Health Survey of São Paulo, a cross-sectional population-based survey (n = 1662; age range 12-97 years), were used. Dietary intake was measured using 24-h dietary recalls. Baseline characteristics were collected. Associations between BCAA intake and demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors were determined using linear regression. RESULTS: Total BCAA intake was 217.14 mg/kg·day (Leu: 97.16 mg/kg·day; Ile: 56.44 mg/kg·day; Val: 63.54 mg/kg·day). BCAA intake was negatively associated with female sex in adolescents and adult groups, with no white race in adolescents, and with former smoker status in adults. Conversely, BCAA was positively associated with household per capita income in adolescents and adults. No associations were observed in the older adults group. Main food contributors to BCAA were unprocessed red meat, unprocessed poultry, bread and toast, beans and rice. CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents and adults were the most vulnerable to having their BCCA intake influenced by demographic, socioeconomic and lifestyle factors.

Abstract: Objectives: To describe the dietary patterns of children inside and outside school and investigate their associations with sociodemographic factors and nutritional status. Methods: This was a multicenter cross-sectional study in which children of both sexes, aged 1-6 years, attending private and public daycare centers and preschools in Brazil, were evaluated (n = 2979). Demographic, socioeconomic and dietary data (weighed food records and estimated food records) were collected. Dietary patterns were derived by factor analysis from 36 food groups. Results: Four dietary patterns were identified inside school, and three outside. Inside school, the "traditional" pattern was associated to low income and presented high nutritional quality. The "dual" pattern was associated with low income and with high intake of added sugar and glycemic load. The "snack" pattern was associated with children enrolled at private schools and with high intake of added sugar and glycemic load. The "bread and butter" pattern was associated with high intake of added sugar and trans fat. Outside school, the "traditional" pattern was associated with high intake of saturated fat, trans fats, sodium, and total fiber. The "bread and butter" pattern was associated with high intake of trans fats and glycemic load, whereas the "snack" pattern was associated with overweight, private schools, high income, and high intake of trans fats, sodium, and total fiber. Conclusion: There are differences in the nutritional quality of dietary patterns inside and outside school, and heterogeneity in adherence to these patterns were observed across regions and socioeconomic classes.
Resumo: Objetivos: Descrever os padrões alimentares de crianças dentro e fora da escola e investigar a sua associação com fatores sociodemográficos e estado nutricional. Métodos: Estudo multicêntrico transversal, no qual foram avaliadas crianças de 1 a 6 anos de ambos os sexos, atendidas em creches públicas e privadas e pré-escolas no Brasil (n = 2.979). Foram coletados dados demográficos, socioeconômicos e dietéticos. Os padrões alimentares foram derivados por análise fatorial a partir de 36 grupos de alimentos. Resultados: Quatro padrões alimentares foram identificados dentro e três fora da creche. Dentro da creche, o padrão "tradicional" foi associado a menor renda e apresentou melhor qualidade nutricional. O padrão "dual" associou-se a menor renda e maior ingestão de açúcar de adição e carga glicêmica. O padrão "lanches" foi associado a crianças matriculadas em escolas privadas e com maior ingestão de açúcar de adição e carga glicêmica. O padrão "pão com manteiga" associou-se a maior ingestão de açúcar de adição e gordura trans. Fora da creche, o padrão "tradicional" foi associado a maior ingestão de gordura saturada, trans, sódio e fibra. O padrão "pão com manteiga" associou-se a maior ingestão de gordura trans e carga glicêmica, enquanto o padrão "lanches" associou-se às crianças com excesso de peso, de creches privadas, maior renda e com maior ingestão de gordura trans, sódio e fibra. Conclusão: Houve diferença na qualidade nutricional dos padrões dentro e fora da escola e a adesão a esses ocorreu de forma heterogênea nas regiões e classes socioeconômicas.

OBJECTIVES: To describe the dietary patterns of children inside and outside school and investigate their associations with sociodemographic factors and nutritional status. METHODS: This was a multicenter cross-sectional study in which children of both sexes, aged 1-6 years, attending private and public daycare centers and preschools in Brazil, were evaluated (n=2979). Demographic, socioeconomic and dietary data (weighed food records and estimated food records) were collected. Dietary patterns were derived by factor analysis from 36 food groups. RESULTS: Four dietary patterns were identified inside school, and three outside. Inside school, the "traditional" pattern was associated to low income and presented high nutritional quality. The "dual" pattern was associated with low income and with high intake of added sugar and glycemic load. The "snack" pattern was associated with children enrolled at private schools and with high intake of added sugar and glycemic load. The "bread and butter" pattern was associated with high intake of added sugar and trans fat. Outside school, the "traditional" pattern was associated with high intake of saturated fat, trans fats, sodium, and total fiber. The "bread and butter" pattern was associated with high intake of trans fats and glycemic load, whereas the "snack" pattern was associated with overweight, private schools, high income, and high intake of trans fats, sodium, and total fiber. CONCLUSION: There are differences in the nutritional quality of dietary patterns inside and outside school, and heterogeneity in adherence to these patterns were observed across regions and socioeconomic classes.

OBJECTIVE: To assess Fe intake, calculate the prevalence of inadequate Fe intake and identify food contributors to Fe intake during 2003 and 2008 in a population-based study, reflecting before and after the mandatory fortification of flour with Fe. DESIGN: Two cross-sectional population-based studies conducted in 2003 and 2008. Dietary intake was evaluated by 24 h recall and the Software for Intake Distribution Estimation (PC-SIDE) was used to estimate within-person variance and prevalence of inadequate Fe intake. The statistical analysis was conducted considering the complex survey design. SETTING: São Paulo, Brazil. SUBJECTS: Adolescents, adults and elderly adults of both sexes, interviewed in 2003 (n 2386) and 2008 (n 1661). RESULTS: The Fe intake mean increased in all populations in the post-fortification period. A reduction of over 90 % was observed in the prevalence of inadequate Fe intake among men for all age groups analysed. When evaluating women, despite the substantial reduction (over 63 %), prevalence of inadequate Fe intake remained high (34 %) in those aged 19-50 years. Major food contributors to Fe intake before fortification were beans, beef, vegetables and dairy. There was an alteration in the contributors in the post-fortification period, with bread, beef, beans and biscuits as main contributors. CONCLUSIONS: The mandatory fortification with Fe significantly furthered the reduction in the prevalence of inadequacy, except among women of reproductive age, and changed the main contributors to this nutrient in the studied population. Therefore, monitoring of Fe addition in flour is essential to assess compliance to the fortified flour policy and to guarantee a safe Fe intake for all the population.

Introdução: A fortificação mandatória de ferro foi implantada no Brasil em 2004 com o intuito de combater a deficiência desse micronutriente. No entanto, alguns estudos indicam que o consumo excessivo de ferro pode estar relacionado ao desenvolvimento de síndrome metabólica, resistência à insulina e alterações do metabolismo lipídico. Objetivos: Avaliar a ingestão de ferro antes e após a implementação da política de fortificação mandatória, investigar a associação da ingestão de ferro heme, não heme e total com a síndrome metabólica e seus componentes, avaliar o papel da ingestão do ferro heme, não heme e total na resistência à insulina mediado pela interleucina-6, malondialdeído e leptina. Metodologia: Os dados foram provenientes de dois estudos transversais de base populacional (ISA-Capital 2003 e 2008), conduzidos em amostra representativa de residentes do município de São Paulo, de ambos os sexos e com idade superior a 12 anos. O consumo alimentar foi avaliado por meio de recordatórios de 24 horas e utilizou-se um questionário estruturado para obter informações socioeconômicas, demográficas e de estilo de vida. Coletou-se amostras de sangue em jejum de 12h para as análises bioquímicas e aferiu-se pressão arterial, peso, estatura e circunferência da cintura. Os analitos avaliados foram glicemia plasmática de jejum, insulina sérica de jejum, triglicerídeos plasmáticos, lipoproteína de alta densidade, malondialdeído, proteína C reativa ultrassensível, interleucina-6 e leptina sérica. As análises estatísticas foram realizadas utilizando os softwares Stata®, versão 13 e Mplus®, versão 7.4, com nível de 7 significância de 0,05. Resultados: A média do consumo de ferro aumentou em todas as faixas etárias no período pós-fortificação. Houve uma redução superior a 90 por cento na prevalência de inadequação dos homens em todas as faixas etárias, no entanto, apesar da substancial redução nas mulheres em idade fértil (63 por cento ), estas ainda possuem alta prevalência de inadequação desse micronutriente (34 por cento ). Maior ingestão de ferro total (OR=3,98; IC 95 por cento =1,2113,12) e não heme (OR= 2,92; IC 95 por cento =1,10-7,72) foram positivamente associadas a hiperglicemia. Houve uma associação positiva entre maior ingestão de ferro heme com síndrome metabólica (OR=2,39; IC 95 por cento =1,105,21) e concentrações elevadas de triglicérides (OR=2,51; IC 95 por cento =1,065,91). A ingestão de ferro heme, não heme e total tiveram um efeito direto e positivamente associado às concentrações de interleucina-6 e negativamente associado às concentrações de malondialdeído. Observou-se um efeito indireto da ingestão do ferro heme, não heme e total na resistência à insulina mediado pela interleucina-6
Introduction: The mandatory fortification of foods with iron was initiated in Brazil in 2004 with order to combat this micronutrient deficiency. However, some studies indicate that excessive consumption of iron can be related to the development of metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance and alterations in lipid metabolism. Objectives: To assess the iron intake before and after the implementation of the mandatory fortification policy, to investigate the association of haem, nonhaem iron and total iron intake with metabolic syndrome and its components, and to evaluate the role of haem, nonhaem iron, and total iron intake in insulin resistance mediated by interleukin 6, leptin and malondialdehyde. Methods: Data were drawn from two cross-sectional population based studies (ISA-Capital 2003 and 2008), conducted with a representative sample of residents of São Paulo, of both sexes and aged over 12 years old. Dietary intake was measured by two 24-hour dietary recall. Socioeconomic, demographic and lifestyle data were obtained through a structured questionnaire. Blood samples were collected after a 12-hour fasting for biochemical analysis and blood pressure, weight, height and waist circumference were measured. The analytes analysed were fasting plasma glucose, fasting serum insulin, plasma triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, malondialdehyde, C-reactive protein, interleukin-6 and serum leptin. All analyses were performed with Stata®, version 13 e Mplus®, version 7.4, and a p-value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: The iron intake mean increased in all the population in the post fortification period. The prevalence of inadequate iron intake decreased by over 90 per cent in men in all 9 analyzed age groups. Although despite the substantial decrease (over 63 per cent ), women in reproductive age remain with a high inadequate intake (34 per cent ). Higher total iron intake (OR=3.98, 95 per cent CI=1.21 13.12) and nonhaem iron intake (OR=2.92, 95 per cent CI=1.107.72) were positively associated with hyperglycaemia. There was a positive association between higher haem iron intake with metabolic syndrome (OR=2.39, 95 per cent CI=1.105.21) with elevated triglyceride levels (OR=2.51, 95 per cent CI=1.065.91). Haem, nonhaem iron and total iron intake had a direct and positive effect on levels of interleukin-6 and negative effect on malondialdehyde levels. There was an indirect effect of haem, nonhaem iron and total iron intake on insulin resistance mediated by interleukin-6

O presente estudo avaliou a eficácia de dois métodos de intervenção nutricional educativa entre mulheres praticantes de atividade física regular visando à adoção de práticas alimentares saudáveis. A população foi constituída de 52 mulheres de 19 a 59 anos, frequentadoras do Programa Academia da Cidade (Aracaju, SE). O estudo teve delineamento de comparação de dois grupos de intervenção e foi do tipo pré-teste/pós-teste. As ações educativas foram baseadas em dois protocolos, uma com ação menos intensiva (Grupo P1) e outra mais intensiva (Grupo P2), num período de dois meses. As variáveis analisadas foram as de conhecimento nutricional, medidas antropométricas e mudanças nos hábitos alimentares. As modificações identificadas foram melhora nos hábitos alimentares e redução do peso e Índice de Massa Corpórea para o Grupo P2. As modificações citadas referiram-se, principalmente, ao aumento do consumo de frutas, verduras e legumes, redução de gordura das preparações, redução do volume do alimento ingerido por refeição e aumento do fracionamento da dieta. Em relação aos conhecimentos em nutrição apenas 2 das 12 perguntas apresentaram aumento significativo da nota. A intervenção nutricional mais intensiva mostrou-se eficaz para mudanças de hábitos alimentares com repercussão na perda de peso corporal.
The scope of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two methods of educational nutritional intervention together with women who practice regular physical activities by fostering the adoption of healthy eating habits. The study population consisted of 52 women aged between 19 and 59 who frequented the Academia da Cidade Program in Aracaju in the State of Sergipe. The study was a randomized comparison of two intervention groups and was of the pre-test/post-test variety. The educational activities were based on two protocols - one less intensive (P1 Group) and one more intensive (P2 Group) - over a period of two months. The variables analyzed were nutritional knowledge, anthropometric measurements and changes in eating habits. The changes identified were improvement in eating habits and reduction in weight and Body Mass Index for the P2 group. The modifications identified referred mainly to increased consumption of fruit and vegetables, reduction of fat in cooking, reduction in the volume of food eaten per meal and increased meal frequency. In relation to nutritional knowledge, only 2 of the 12 questions showed significant changes. The most intensive method proved effective in changing dietary habits leading to weight loss.

OBJETIVO: Avaliar a qualidade da dieta de mulheres praticantes de atividades físicas do Programa Academia da Cidade segundo idade e estado nutricional, Aracajú, Sergipe. MÉTODOS: Foram coletados dados sociodemográficos, antropométricos e dietéticos de 169 mulheres. O Índice de Qualidade da Dieta foi obtido a partir da média de aplicação de dois recordatórios de 24 horas. Os dados do Índice de Qualidade da Dieta total e de seus componentes foram analisados de acordo com o índice de massa corporal (obesos e não obesos) e a faixa etária (adultos jovens e adultos velhos). Foram realizadas análise estatística descritiva e Análise de Variância para a comparação das médias de pontuação do Índice de Qualidade da Dieta entre os grupos. RESULTADOS: Na população estudada, com idade média de 49,2 anos, 24,85% das mulheres foram consideradas obesas, e 43,20% com obesidade abdominal. A pontuação média do Índice de Qualidade da Dieta foi 66,64 pontos, com 90,60% da população apresentando dieta com necessidade de modificações. No componente hortaliças, as obesas apresentaram menor consumo do que as não obesas. Com relação à idade, aos componentes hortaliças, leite e derivados, à variedade da dieta e à pontuação final, obtiveram-se notas maiores entre adultos velhos. CONCLUSÃO: A população apresentou hábitos alimentares inadequados principalmente entre as mais novas e as com excesso de peso. Assim, frisa-se a importância de estratégias educacionais voltadas à nutrição na efetivação de uma vida saudável.
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the present study was to assess the diet quality of women exercising in the "City Gym Program" according to age and nutritional status, in Aracajú, Sergipe, Brazil. METHODS: Sociodemographic, anthropometric and dietary data of 169 women were collected. The Diet Quality Index was calculated by taking the average of two 24-hour recalls. Total Diet Quality Index data and its components were analyzed according to BMI (obese and non-obese) and age (young adults and older adults). Descriptive statistical analysis and analysis of variance were done for comparing the mean Diet Quality Index score of the groups. RESULTS: SThe average age of the sample of 169 women was 49.24 years, of which 24.85% were obese and 43.20% had abdominal obesity. The average Diet Quality Index score was 66.64 points, with 90.60% of the population requiring dietary changes. Obese women consumed fewer vegetables than non-obese. Meanwhile, older adults had better scores regarding vegetable intake, dairy product intake and diet variety, and a better final score. CONCLUSION: The population presented poor eating habits, especially young and overweight women. Therefore, educational nutrition strategies are very important and highly recommended for the promotion of healthier lifestyles.
